Looks real nice! My new to me boat/trailer could use a little tlc. The trailer has some surface rust spots. I like how yours came out.

When you say "aluminum paint" do you mean paint that is (for lack of better term) "infused with aluminum"? Or do you mean paint that is meant for aluminum? Did you find it harder to work with than your basic epoxy or latex paint?
